The bitter disappointment at finding themselves once again the losing side is really beginning to show. Many more defeats like this could spell the end for them in this division. Today Westhampton Comrades's defence were as hard to pass as the Dog And Duck on Free Lager day. With 2 goals to his name, Russell Ingleaves performance was so impressive he got out of washing the kit after the match. Westhampton Comrades's defensive strategy was too much for the counter attacking play of mikey1958. Both teams were on their best behaviour and the result was not a single player found their name in the ref's notebook. There was a bloody good punch-up in the car park afterwards though. Westhampton Comrades look about as convinving playing in the 4 1 4 1 formation as they would if boss Emo Prix sent them out in dresses. "We had enough chances to win this game," remarked manager Emo Prix to anyone who'd listen. "In fact, we did win." Some scores are bigger than others, the thing is, the result always remains the same. Westhampton Comrades's victory might be slim, but it's the three points that count.
